Shepparton Race 12

Two More Races To Go

Prize Money: $3,360

PAW QUEBEC (1) was an upset winner last time when scoring at big odds in a Grade 5 at The Meadows (30.41). Form here sound including three wins. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of that last-start win. ASCEND IGLOO (7) used the inside draw to advantage last time and hit the ground running with a fast early split, but could manage only the minor money when a 5.5 lengths third at Healesville over 350m in 19.69. Can measure up. CALLAHAN (4) lines up chasing another win after getting around the 390m at this track in a decent 22.15 on October 5. Expecting another bold showing. MISCLASSIFIED (3) missed the frame latest (24.31) when sixth over 425m at Bendigo in a Grade 5. Has already won two times from this draw.

Good performance to win by 2.25 lengths at The Meadows over 525m (30.41) beating Regal Spencer in Grade 5 on October 3. Was strongly supported and ran right away with it last time. Follow up.

Comments

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (23.68) in a Mix 3/4, finishing a 18 length eighth. Yet to miss the frame from four starts from the draw, including two wins. Tough line-up and may struggle.

Good performance to win by 3.5 lengths at this track over 390m (22.15) beating Tornado Tessa in Grade 4/5 on October 5. Looks a solid hope.

Out of the placings last time but the run prior she recorded a swift 24.04 over 425m finishing second at Bendigo. Harder here and looks a place chance only.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (19.69) at Healesville over 350m. Has the ability to take this out.
